Meredith College participates in two exchange programs. These are scholarship programs. Employees are eligible to apply to the program but there is no assurance of approval. Generally the decision to approve is made by the importing school and a student must meet their guidelines for acceptance to the program. Additional information about these programs and application forms will be available in the Office of the Associate Vice President for Enrollment Management.
